We get it. There’s few feelings greater than hopping in your vehicle and escaping. We know what it’s like to hit the perfect trail with nothing but clear skies ahead. We love the freedom in covering terrain near and far, but sometimes you need more than tires with grit and adrenaline coursing through your veins. There’s the occasional mechanical woe or the need to connect with (or harass) others in your group. But we’ve got you covered with our complete Cobra 75 kit that comes with everything you need for a full off-road install. Don’t waste time piecing the best package together bit by bit. Instead, trust us when we say this is one of the best trail-ready packages on the market. (Have a JK or FJ? Check out our custom Jeep JK Package and FJ Cruiser Package.)

Jeep and off-road users who need a durable, long-lasting CB system. This package features multiple Jeep-specific mounts that attach to the hood, tail light or spare tire carrier (see "Mounting Hardware" for compatibility). This kit is also useful for light truck drivers, as the compact radio fits easily in a small cab, and the three-way mount can easily attach to the pickup bed rail. If you drive an FJ Cruiser, choose the Bandi mount, which attaches to the hinge of the tailgate with no drilling.

Radio:

This kit is built around the Cobra 75 WX ST handheld CB. The Cobra 75 is ideal for Jeep and off-road vehicle owners who need an extremely compact CB unit, as all radio components are contained within the handset. Antenna attachment, power wiring and external speaker hookup all run through a small mounting box that can be tucked away for a clean installation. The radio includes 10 weather channels for monitoring conditions while on the trail, plus an extended two-year warranty for peace of mind.

Antenna:

The kit provides two antenna options:

Firestik FS: The Firestik FS series is the most popular fiberglass CB antenna on the market today. It doesn't offer the flexibility of the Wilson Flex, but it does provide significantly better transmit and receive performance. Also, you can add a CB spring to the antenna and mount to provide limited flexibility if desired. If optimal range is most important, the Firestik FS antenna is a better choice than the Wilson Flex.

Wilson Flex: On the trail, it's convenient to have an antenna that can survive getting snagged, bent, bowed and abused. Subsequently, we picked an antenna that can bend 180 degrees without breaking: the Wilson Flex. These 3' and 4' antennas provide superior protection against snapping and hold up well to the rigors of off-road use. While flexible, they don't offer the same level of transmit and receive performance that a traditional fiberglass antenna like the Firestik FS does. If flexibility is most important -- and long-range communication isn't crucial -- the Flex is a good choice.

Mounting Hardware:

We include a choice of six mounting kits to give you optimal flexibility and customization. All kits include a quality CB antenna mount plus a high-grade CB coax cable. Three mounting options are included in the price of the kit, while custom Jeep and FJ mounts are available as a $19.95 upgrade. Please see the links below for individual mounting kit details.

External Speaker: The Cobra's small speaker can occasionally be difficult to hear, especially over the roar of a revving Jeep engine. That's why we include a compact external speaker to ensure clear communication in noisy environments. The speaker comes with a mounting bracket for easy installation anywhere in the vehicle cab. Note: Speaker may differ slightly from picture.

SWR Meter & Jumper: Every kit includes an SWR meter and coax jumper to tune your antenna for optimal performance. If you're not familiar with the tuning process, you can read why it's important and how to do it properly at the CB Resources page.

3-Way Mount: The 3-way mount is our most popular universal option and is incredibly versatile. It can be mounted to any vertical surface, as well as sandwiched onto vertical and horizontal bars. It's you're in doubt, it's hard to go wrong with the 3-way mount.

Universal Hood: For vehicles with vertical hood channels, the universal hood mount is a great way to cleanly mount your antenna. The minor drilling holes are covered by the hood, and it's deep enough to accommodate just about all hoods.

Picking the Right Antenna

Firestik FS: Unless you need a super flexible antenna, we'd recommend choosing the Firestik FS. It's our best selling antenna, provides top-notch performance and can still achieve some flexibility with a spring. For length, we recommend the 4' over the 3' if at all possible as it will give you an additional 1-2 miles range.

Wilson FLEX: If you know you'll constantly be slamming your antenna into overhanging brush, your garage door or anything else we recommend the Wilson FLEX. It is amazingly flexible and forgiving, but you do give up some performance. You'll likely only be able to talk 1/2 the distance as compared to the Firestik FS.
